Down by the River Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Nyqvist received only a four minute minor. This is one of the worst stick incidents I've seen since Brashear. If Duncan Keith got 6 games, this should be 15. For reference: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocksterh8 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Unbelievable, player safety should be called Player Stupid. There is no safety in there calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Deserves 10-15. Since it's a league favorite team he probably only gets 4 or 5. Dangerous dangerous play, you can take someones eye out doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni Zamboni Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 looked pretty darn intentional to me....spearing to the face, yes...highsticking, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Whatever he gets, it's ridiculous that he was allowed to remain in the game. If ever there was an infraction that called for 5 and a game, this was it. Once again, the league invokes the "star" rule.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hatedkid666 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Should be a suspended but hey if Marchand just got a fine then you never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxLapierreAwesomeFace Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Disgusting....needs to be suspended.. Update: Whew..DPOS isn't that bush league I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Guy should get 20 games for that, but league will say the five minute major counts as enough. Nyquist should have been forced to man up for that. If these players knew they had to take some face punches, they wouldn't do this crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only took a double minor for high sticking, not even a major! Brutal play. Completely unnecessary. I would've expected more from Nyquist.

Pears Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Nyquist was one of the last guys I'd expect to this. Keith or Ratchand yea, but Nyquist?? History shouldn't factor in to this, this an easy 10+ game suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIBdaQUIB Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 WOW! I look forward to reading the DOPS 's explanation of why this doesn't deserve 5-10 games. Nothing like a little DOPS fiction or "alternate Facts" to entertain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'nyquist is a good guy playing on a great organization. no prior history. 2 games.' they really like to ignore the severity of a incident when they come up with their rulings, especially if they've done nothing in the past. bunch of morons.

Probably something like... "While Nyquist did raise his stick, he had no intention to actually hit Spurgeon. Unfortunately, Spurgeon, just prior to contact, moved his head in such a manner as to initiate contact. IN such a case, a fine is deemed appropriate. We hereby fine Spurgeon $5K for slashing Nyquist's stick with his face". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how many games because DoPS usually decides based on whether the player was injured or not but there's clearly an intent and it could have ruined a player's career if it struck him in the eye or something like that.
